What started as a couple’s anniversary getaway, ended in a romantic proposal in the Colosseum in Rome. Audrius and Gabija from Lithuania were together for three years when Audrius popped the question. Instead of taking photos or a video of the proposal he recorded his heart beat! We read about his proposal on reddit and we got in touch with him. He told us he is a Couple user and he shared his story with us. As big Gladiator fans they choose to go to Rome for their anniversary. They had seen the movie multiple times and thought it was time to pay a visit to the ancient stadium in Rome. To see what would happen, Adrius wore a heart rate monitor during the proposal: “I had a feeling that this will be stressful”. And he was right! The graph he shared on reddit shows that he was indeed a bit stressed before asking his girlfriend to marry him. But luckily Gabija said yes and soon his heart rate went down again (see graph).

Another reddit user named ao11112 read Audrius’ post and decided to do something alike. But he didn’t measured his own heart rate during the proposal, but his girlfriend’s! Below you can see his girlfriend’s heart rate. Do you see a pattern?
